Some correlations between hypnotic action and chemical constitution

A review of theories of narcosis has been made, and some correlations between constitution and activity have been presented for the aliphatic hypnotics;The close and important relationship of dibenzofuran and its derivatives to morphine has been discussed. The following derivatives to morphine has been discussed. The following derivatives to morphine has been discussed. The following derivatives of dibenzofuran haven been prepared for use in physiological tests: 2-, 3-, and 4-amino-, 2- and 3-hydroxy-dibenzofuran, and 2- and 3-dibenzofurancarboxylic acids;A necessary study of nuclear substitution in dibenzofuran has been made prior to the preparation of derivatives for physiological tests. It has been shown that homonuclear substitution results when 2-discetaminodibenzofuran is brominated or nitrated. Heteronuclear substitution occurs when 3-nitrodibenzofuran is brominated. Both heteronuclear and homonuclear substitution take place when 2-bomodibenzofuran is nitrated;The hydroxydibenzofuran formed by passing resorcinol over heated tungstic oxide has been shown to be 3-hydroxydibenzofuran; and, a low melting isomer formed during nitration of dibenzofuran has been found to consist, in part, of 2-nitrodibenzofuran. The significance of these two facts is discussed with reference to the space formula of dibenzofuran and purported anomalous substitutions

Using microalgae in the circular economy to valorise anaerobic digestate::Challenges and Opportunities

Managing organic waste streams is a major challenge for the agricultural industry. Anaerobic digestion (AD) of organicwastes is a preferred option in the waste management hierarchy, as this processcangenerate renewableenergy, reduce emissions from wastestorage, andproduce fertiliser material.However, Nitrate Vulnerable Zone legislation and seasonal restrictions can limit the use of digestate on agricultural land. In this paper we demonstrate the potential of cultivating microalgae on digestate as a feedstock, either directlyafter dilution, or indirectlyfromeffluent remaining after biofertiliser extraction. Resultant microalgal biomass can then be used to produce livestock feed, biofuel or for higher value bio-products. The approach could mitigate for possible regional excesses, and substitute conventional high-impactproducts with bio-resources, enhancing sustainability withinacircular economy. Recycling nutrients from digestate with algal technology is at an early stage. We present and discuss challenges and opportunities associated with developing this new technology

Timing of surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection: an international prospective cohort study.

Peri-operative SARS-CoV-2 infection increases postoperative mortality. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal duration of planned delay before surgery in patients who have had SARS-CoV-2 infection. This international, multicentre, prospective cohort study included patients undergoing elective or emergency surgery during October 2020. Surgical patients with pre-operative SARS-CoV-2 infection were compared with those without previous SARS-CoV-2 infection. The primary outcome measure was 30-day postoperative mortality. Logistic regression models were used to calculate adjusted 30-day mortality rates stratified by time from diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection to surgery. Among 140,231 patients (116 countries), 3127 patients (2.2%) had a pre-operative SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis. Adjusted 30-day mortality in patients without SARS-CoV-2 infection was 1.5% (95%CI 1.4-1.5). In patients with a pre-operative SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis, mortality was increased in patients having surgery within 0-2 weeks, 3-4 weeks and 5-6 weeks of the diagnosis (odds ratio (95%CI) 4.1 (3.3-4.8), 3.9 (2.6-5.1) and 3.6 (2.0-5.2), respectively). Surgery performed ≥ 7 weeks after SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis was associated with a similar mortality risk to baseline (odds ratio (95%CI) 1.5 (0.9-2.1)). After a ≥ 7 week delay in undertaking surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection, patients with ongoing symptoms had a higher mortality than patients whose symptoms had resolved or who had been asymptomatic (6.0% (95%CI 3.2-8.7) vs. 2.4% (95%CI 1.4-3.4) vs. 1.3% (95%CI 0.6-2.0), respectively). Where possible, surgery should be delayed for at least 7 weeks following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Patients with ongoing symptoms ≥ 7 weeks from diagnosis may benefit from further delay
